Bottle. It’s a lighlty unclear one, brown in color and topped by a small, dense, light beige head. Some alcohol in the nose, with beef stock, toffee, bready hints, some hoppy scents and a touch of higher alcohols. The flavor is quite sweetish and caramel-ish, with some beef stock and bitterness. Warming and full-bodied with a pleasant level of carbonation. Bitter, sweet and caramel-ish finish with dried fruits. A decent beer, but it lacks quite a bit on complexity, and is a tad too alcoholic. Sort of like doppelbock meets strong Belgian ale. 130510

Had my first Grauballe beer at You’ll Never Walk Alone in Kolding back in November 2002 - can’t believe that is more than 10 years ago, I might have been the first Ratebeerian to taste a Grauballe beer. Bottled. An unclear brown beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of caramel, alcohol, malt, and bread. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel, over ripe fruits, alcohol, and malt, leading to bitter finish.
